The best of the world's arts, film, music and literature brought to you every day. Presented by Anna McNamee.

Today a special edition of The Strand featuring Iranian graphic novelist, artist and film maker Marjane Satrapi.

Following the success of her semi-autobiographical Persepolis books and films, she has now co-directed a live-action version of another of her books - Chicken with Plums - which is a fictional story about a musician who decides to die after his precious violin gets broken.

Marjane Satrapi joins us to discuss film-making, gambling, dramatic deaths and cabaret.
